PAGE SEVEN J i In Shrine Circus IkfEDFOED MAIL TFJBrSE. fEDFORD, OBF.GOX. THURSDAY. AUGUST 22. 1935. WHILE IN GOTHAM Th following Interesting latter via rewired from one of the Boy Scout In the Mdford troop making the tour through the tut: New York City, Aug. 18, 1038. rr Family: The hardest thing on this trip la to find time to write. We start at 8:30 a.m., and It la uaually two or three before we are asleep In bed. That len't 'so good. We are busy alt the time, and seeing thlnga we could never aee alone. Yesterday evening we were at Luna park. "Coney Island." The Boy Scouts gave us free admission ticket and the Luna park concession gave us 90 cents worth of rides for 40 eents right good. Today we see Radio City and tna double-header baseball game. That will be a full day. We stayed at the Cataract Hotel It la rather old, 147 years, but It la atlll very classy indeed. We had a grand time there during our short visit. The falls are even more beau t1i under the searchlights. Tomorrow night we are having dinner at Jack Dempsey's club, and old Jack la going to be there in person. I aurely wish we were going to be here un the 22nd. There Is going to be seven six-round bouts in Madison Square darden. Dempsey'a club la Just across the street from ' the Garden. I find many changes in New York City since Dad and I were here in 1930, so many new buildings and new parks, and everyplace you go you see the words "Strike A. F. ot L." You really do not know what to think. Everyone saya It la the com munists that are behind the move ment. Jamea West, chief ecout executive, met us at the train, and gave us ( free ) Jamboree neckerch lef s. We are the only outfit he met. Our next atop will be at Washing ton, where we will stay four or five days. iick. Ye Poet's Cornei Two Heroes O'er that vast bleak Arctic Iceland Far from friends and kin and home. A brave and famous pilot And a movie Idol roam. Days' they've spent in idly flying, Gazing on God's wonderland On the Mata.nuska Valley, Over mountains wild and grand. But that ta not their chief objective, That is not why they left all Civilization, friends, and loved ones, In their answer to the filers', call. Adventure draws to new dangera; How they plan, conspire with glee; They will hunt "Siberian titters" When they hop the Artie 8ea. North, they head their pontooned air plane. To Point Barrow, where their flight Will proceed from there to Russia. After resting through the night. "Man proposes. God disposes." Old the adage, sad and true: For the brave men, fog endangering. Down Into a lagoon flew. After questioning the natives, Who directed them aright; Once again the dauntless heroes Headed north; attempted flight. This attempt was short and fatal. Breathless horror, a nose dive I Down In ley lagoon waters. Craahed the fliera, ne'er to rise. Thua the life of two men ended. Famed Will Rogers and Wiley Post; But the memory long will linger How their lives were lived and lost. Only hesrt&chee for their families Only memories of those gone; But the future generationa Will learn of them in story and song. Lula E. Thurston.
